About
The West Chester Story Slam is a monthly event where anyone can get on stage and tell a five minute story based on the theme of the night. Inspired by urban story slams such as the Windy City Story Slam and Philadelphia’s First Person Arts Story Slam, along with The Moth and NPR’s This American Life, a few friends first met in Jim Breslin‘s living room to tell stories in November, 2009.
In January, 2010, the West Chester Story Slam officially began it’s debut season at Ryan’s Pub. Over the first two years, approximately 200 stories have been told. In addition to the live event, the website features videos of selected stories. A monthly podcast is also produced featuring three stories from the live event.
Starting in January, 2012, the West Chester Story Slam will take place at Victory Brewing Company. Come on out to listen or to tell your story!
